Despite government and private sector efforts to recover national coffee production, planted area in marketing year 2021/2022 is expected to remain at 60,000 hectares. Exports are expected to fall to 444,000 60-kg bags after a jump in exports the previous year. The continued COVID-19 pandemic could cause some issues with harvesting and processing of coffee in Ecuador.
